Default Touring Rear Wheel Offset??

What is the offset in the touring wheel? The reason for the question is that I have completed the install of a '10 FLHX front wheel on the rear of my '02 FLHT and the offset, by rough measurement, is mas o menos .375" to the left (primary) side. I plan to run a 150/70 tire on this wheel (not mounted yet) and will be replacing the OEM pulley/belt with the narrow pulley/belt. Just wondering if I need to do the extra work to move the wheel to the right; more to the center? I believe all will fit up nicely but would like to know the touring rear wheel offset at it comes from the factory. Does anyone know?
